​Today’s contract ratification vote was a huge success, and I want to thank all the members who ignored the media hype about gridlock and the MTV Video Music Awards and came out anyway to make their voices heard. I also want to thank the Negotiations Team, our Executive Board and NTU staff for manning the polls and answering questions since 7 a.m. 

We had 887 voters come out, with 93.46% voting YES and 6.54% voting NO.  The YES’s have it, and we have ratified the contract!  Now the agreement will go before the NBOE Board meeting tomorrow night Tuesday August 27th for their approval.  

Approximat

Reminder: Contract Ratification vote is Monday, August 26 ,2019 from 7 AM to 7 PM at the Newark Teachers Union, 1019 Broad Street. All members are welcome to vote!

Why is it important to vote?

This contract removes the last vestiges of corporate reform from the district.  No more renew schools, no more performance pay.  This contract is a message to our enemies that your evil is not welcome in Newark or any other public schools.

Contract Reopener FAQ (June 2022)

Colleagues,

Thank you for your patience!

This afternoon, we signed a tentative memorandum of agreement with the Newark Board of Education.  This tentative agreement still needs to be approved by the Executive Board and ratified by the membership. 

This is the schedule of upcoming events:

Monday, August 12 - 9:30 AM - Agreement will be presented to President Abeigon and the Executive Board for their review and approval.

We believe we are very close to reaching a contract settlement with Newark Board of Education.   It is going to be very important that you stay in touch with your Union for contract details, information sessions and voting over the summer.

In preperation for Contract Negotiations, our January 15 meeting will be closed session.  We apologize for any inconvience.

CONTRACT SURVEY!

Negotiations with the district will officially kick off in January.  One of the most important first steps in negotiations is our Contract Survey.  This year, we are focusing in on several issues that our members have told us are of particular importance, ranging from more prep time to additional protections and benefits for per diem staff.    You can also add your own suggested topics.  Remember!  The more we hear something, the more we can push for it.  So work with your Building Rep and Committee to bring forward issues that are important to you!
